A Desolate soil

A glimpse of a forgotten land

Birds soar in the sky

Scavengers seeking their prey

Bearers of ill fortune

Bringing sorrow and despair

Beware of steep ravines

It is easy to fall in

Waves of doubt

Surging from beneath

Trying to deny

Trying to rationalize

Trying to negate

The true world

You want to hold on to

Any beliefs

You want to grab any reason

To help you sleep at night

A messiah, an angel

False gods in books of man

Landscapes of famine, rotten reality

Swaying in a fate of time

Animal instinct

Rooting deep in you

Step outside yourself

And let the truth sink in

The storm subsides

I take a breath

Confronting alone

The nature itself

Who's going to be the first

In climbing the never-ending hill

Fiercely fighting your way to the top

Not noticing anything beyond wants

The wheel keeps spinning

And the game plays out

The outcome is pretty clear

Under the spell of despair and need

Ah, a soothing mist

Billowing fog

Among the gathered clouds

Let the tendrils of mist

Pervade my wounds

And free me from this suffering

Remembering the time

Reliving yesterday's world

My mind is now far... away

From this nightmare

Into the pit of sadness, I fell

Hearing the voices

Of my lost friends

I lie half-dead on the ground

Thinking I will never get up

In the pit of sadness

Swarmed with visions

And lost dreams

I am still among the living

If I could just stand...
